They had school today. I was hoping they would send them home early. She should be home from school soon. I just was outside and slipped 2 times. It’s really coming down now.

It’s very nice here today, Mama Bear. The temps are mild, not quite as Hot as yesterday. We have rain coming, which is also good!

After last night, my prediction changed. I now think Naomi and Melissa will be the next two eliminated, probably Naomi next week. Jillian and Molly will be the finalists and he will pick Molly.

I know that’s shocking. Last week, I was sure about Melissa, and all the chatter is in her favor. But, he really has a thing for Jillian and he and Molly have a spark.

Naomi he is only sexually attracted to. When he says Melissa may be “too good to be true” means he has an instinctive doubt. She may simply not be as into him as he would like.

Here’s another shocker: I would like Melissa to be the next Bachelorette. She is very special and sweet, would be a real prize for the right guy. I honestly think that is not Jason.

Molly is solid and sincere, and I think he senses that.

How neat! I enjoyed both of your wedding ring stories.

I used to work in hospital patient relations dept. and more than half my cases were “lost belongings.” It’s easy to lose personal stuff in a hospital, esp. in the folds of sheets. I was good at tracking stuff down:-)

As for the rutabaga patch gentleman, good thinking on the part of your colleague! Also, I happen to really like rutabagas!!

Well, now I am not so "90% sure". LOL.

I think I have been influenced by all the "chatter" and was pretty sure he was going to choose Melissa, but you could be right. She almost doesn't seem grounded enough for him. I can actually see him with Jillian and he really seems to probing her for her sincere feelings, like it is really important that he is sure about her. He would not be doing that if there was not a connection developing and he is not doing that so much with the others, except for right before the rose ceremony with Naomi. And I don't even know why she is still there. I think it must have been a toss-up between Naomi and Stephanie last night and he went with Stephanie. Naomi is sure to be next.

Now I have gone from being very sure to not being sure at all! Of all of them left, I really do like Jillian, but I have no idea now who he is going to pick!

Melissa would be a good Bachelorette. She is a sweet girl.

Hubby had to have emergency surgery a couple years ago. Docs wanted his wedding ring off. I just laughed. We’ve been married since high school and he’s...uh...put on a little weight since then. LOL Only way his ring is coming off is if his finger does.

Had some fresh rutabagas for lunch! Boss grew them and it’s so slow right now, we’ve been cooking a good bit at work.

Rutabagas grow sooo easily. I enjoyed doing that one winter. Do you just steam them and eat with butter, salt and peppah?!

Hope you got rid of the Trojan virus, Meg. Sometimes I get annoyed at how often McAfee automatically updates and scans my system, but so far my pc has been pretty free of any bugs and pests. I run Spybot Search and Destroy, QuickClean, AdAware, and CCleaner pretty often, too. Can’t be too careful. :)

I haven’t got to see everything yet today either. Glad liked it. The poem only illustrates how things in my family used to be. Lots of younger families are having all that fun now!....good to remember the ‘good old days’, isn’t it.

What a precious kitty! Somebody hit it with some snow...awww~

It could be Jillian. I feel she was a slow starter and is pulling ahead now. I had no idea he had “strong feelings” for her, but of course we can’t always see feelings on camera, LOL!!!

Dogs seem to be crazy when it comes to skunks! LOL! Indeed! Roscoe has been 'skunked' FIVE times! White Dog only once, but he got it directly in the face and he was really in pain - couldn't open his eyes for an hour or so even after we got him 'deskunked'.
